Sweetest Intentions (Bottles of Glass)

from Pure Destroyer by WAR PARTY

/

lyrics

Who's that sipping on bottles of glass?
Pulling teeth from a cabbage patch
Small town logic tension on the line
Reeling up a catch of big city plight

Whose that vying for a TV show?
Reality stars in your favorite roles
Sitcom numbness trickles down your throat
Leaves you with no choices but still gives you a vote

And it's gonna be a late one
Here comes another plate, hon
Chew it up before you swallow
We're not leaving until you're done

Forced into the path of least resistance
Heaven and Hell work on commission
Careful who you've been breaking bread with
They've got kisses for you
And the rest of the guest list

Who's that wearing our favorite position?
Twinkling little star of best intentions
Peer into these eyes little light of mine
I'll start a fire and you'll let it shine

Who's that out there calling my name?
Rolling cigarettes and sweeping drains
Standing on a soapbox, shielding their shame
They talk about love like they talk about pain

And it's going to be a wild one
Every body is getting wet out here, hon
You better bring an extra towel, babe
Or you're not getting in this Escalade

Forced into a game of misdirection
Don't confuse affectation for affection
Not every doctor loves their patients
But every crook loves a paycheck
Maybe not how they make it

Oh maybe it's worth a mention
We've got the sweetest intentions
Maybe it's worth a mention
We've got the sweetest intentions

Who's that out there calling my name?
Rolling cigarettes and sweeping drains
Standing on a soap box, shielding their shame
They talk about love like they talk about blame

And it's gonna be a wet one
Ain't nobody's getting out of here, hon
Chew it up before you swallow
Oh you're not leaving til you're done
Not til you're done

Forced into the path of least resistance
Heaven and Hell work on ommission
Careful who you've been breaking bread with
They've got kisses for you
And they've been chasing their therapists
Crossing their bare wrists

Oh maybe it's worth a mention
They've got the sweetest intentions
Maybe it's worth a mention
They've got the sweetest intentions
